Fruity North African Salad
To serve: 4 as a main course - 4 - 6 as a starter / appetiser
175 g rice
1 organic orange
1 tbsp Fairtrade honey
410 g tin chickpeas, drained
50 g dried cranberries
50 g sultanas
50 g dates, chopped
2 large organic tomatoes, skinned and roughly chopped
1 pepper, finely chopped
3 - 4 tbsp roughly chopped fresh coriander
Cook the rice according to packet instructions, drain and place in a large bowl
Whisk the orange juice and honey together, and pour over the warm rice, set aside to cool
Add all the remaining ingredients to the bowl after a few minutes and mix well
Allow the salad to stand for half an hour so that the dried fruit has a chance to plump up
Divide into bowls
